That Kevin Von Erich, oh, he’s a good boy. Strong like an ox, that one. And Ric Flair, well, he’s a sneaky one, always has been. When them two get in the ring, you know it’s gonna be a show. I seen a lot of wrestling in my day, but them two, they got something special.
I remember one time, Kevin, he had Ric Flair backed up against them ropes. Flair, he was yelping like a dog. Kevin, he just kept coming. That boy, he sure can fight. Then this Flair try punch Kevin’s nose. Kevin just shout out, “My nose is broken!” But he still fight back.

- Kevin Von Erich, strong as a bull.
- Ric Flair, sneaky like a weasel.
- When they fight, sparks fly!
One time I saw Kevin at the Cotton Bowl. He was fighting some fella named Black Bart, for the WCWA title. That Kevin, he give it good to him, and his brother Kerry, he was in Kevin’s corner, whooping and hollering, just happy as a pig in slop. That’s a good day that day. Kevin is the best of them.
Folks talk about this Kevin Von Erich vs Ric Flair match all the time. Some say it’s the best there ever was. I don’t know about all that, but I know it’s a good one. They put on a show, them two. I remember that one time they fight in 1983. They called it a “Reunion”, and Ric Flair kept his NWA World Champion. That’s a really good show that day.
This one time, Flair, he tried to poke Kevin’s eyes out! Can you believe that? Right in the ring! No ref see it, though. Then Kevin, he just threw that Flair right over the top rope! Did it twice! Then he smashed him into that pole, made him all bloody. Kevin got that Flair good, pinned him right there with some kind of flying move. Won the gold! Oh, it was something, I tell you.
That Ric Flair, he’s always up to something. He’s like one of them snakes you see down by the creek. Always slithering around, looking for trouble. He even get into a fight with Kevin’s brother, David. They all strong boys, but sneaky Ric Flair try all he can to get the champion.
And you know what else? This Ric Flair, he win some big Royal Rumble one time. He even get some help from Hulk Hogan, throw that Sid out. And then he got the WWE Champion. I don’t know much about that, but he always win all the time. No good, I tell ya.

Kevin Von Erich, though, he’s a good one. He’s honest and he fights fair. Not like that Flair. Kevin, he’s got the heart of a lion. That’s why everyone loves him. He never give up. Never!
- Ric Flair, he’s a cheater.
- Kevin, he’s a good boy, fights fair.
- That match, Kevin Von Erich vs Ric Flair, it was a good one. A real good one.
I seen a lot of fights in my time. Seen a lot of boys come and go. But that Kevin Von Erich vs Ric Flair, that’s one for the books. That’s one I’ll never forget. They just don’t make ’em like that anymore.
One time, Kevin had Ric Flair on the ropes, and Flair, he was hollering like a stuck pig. But Kevin, he just kept coming. That boy, he’s got grit. Then Ric Flair try to get on him, and Kevin just throw him down like nothing. That’s the Kevin I know.
That Kevin Von Erich, he’s got a heart of gold, I tell you. He fight for what’s right. And he never give up, no matter what. He and Ric Flair fight many times, but I know Kevin is the better one. Strong and true. That’s the Kevin I know.
